I was at the game today and I am very proud of our team. Fought back from a 1 goal deficit, then a 2 goal deficit, then a 1 goal deficit until late in the 3rd. Zero quit.....tons of heart......11 of 12 on this home stand

isles looked great today.....really fast team.

We may not make the playoffs but we heave played lights out in crunch time its just too bad all the teams we are chasing are doing the same thing!!

Honestly we are not catching the caps. We are going to catch the sens or rangers if we win 2/3.

maybe i've selfishly been pulling for the Jets to take out the Rangers, but i think the Caps were always going to be hard to catch once they took over first place.

the game came down to a shoot out. couldn't have been much closer. both sides have gripes. good luck the rest of the way... (i was a Jets netminder - in a police league - when i was ten. i've always had a soft spot for them and am still pretty happy that they're back in the league. if i had my way, selanne would come back for his last season.)

Rangers are hot AND they are playing a Devils team that's crapped the bed over the past 10 games. they will likely go 2-1, if not 3-0.

Captials: Jets play them on the back end of a ROAD back to back. uggg. but the Caps have it tough vs Ottawa and Boston.

Jets need to beat the Caps and win at least 1 more of their other 2 games. if they lose to Wpg, there is a chance that the Caps can finish the season 0-3. slight, but possible.

btw- i meant to say this in my other post. i guarantee that the rangers lose to the devils at least once. devs will not want to be eliminated (and humiliated) by the rags tomorrow, so they'll compete for their lives. and if they are eliminated (and humiliated) by the rags tomorrow, you can bet on vengeance. the jets still have a real shot of getting in over the rangers. the talk in nyc regarding the rangers is: where is the passion? they just don't have it.

Tough loss. Out played most the game.
Had the puck in their end for half the first, but didn't generate any scoring at all. One chance Islanders get, and they score.
Blown defense by Buff on that goal, pretty much giving them a breakaway.

Blown defense on Bogo on the last(?) goal. Isn't that one of the first things you learn as a dman? Don't leave the net to chase a guy in the corner? Clitsome pinched at the line, so Bogo was only d back, and instead of staying put, chased a guy in the corner. Unfortunately Clitsome coming back was about 4" too late to stop that pass in front.

As bad as we played, we were a post in OT and a post in SO from possibly winning it. Couple inches and we would have won. Not to mention the save by their dman (forget his name).

Even though they beat the Caps the other nite, the Senators are not playing great right now. They will lose this one tonite to the Leafs, and will only be ahead of us by 3 points. They have a tough final four games, except maybe home to the Flyers. If they lose out, we can beat Sabres and Habs and get in that way. Reach?

Yeah, I mentioned in the other thread, of course the one time Washington loses is vs the Senators. Would have helped us if Washington won that game, looking at things now.

Thing is, Ottawa is 15-3-3 at home, and they have 3 of 5 games left at home.

This is what I've been saying a lot, not to mention that the Devils have been putting a lot of shots on net, just not having them go in. They got to pot some eventually.
